Agree. Original lume tends to shrink over time; this stuff expands beyond the painted plots in several cases.

 

You mean like on these 1000% original 105.012 dials?
Notice on many of the plots the lume is applied beyond the white paint.

No two watches will age alike, as they were never 100% exact to begin with.
Lume was applied by hand.
Furthermore, the dials and the application of the lume changes from batch to batch, once you've had enough of these go through your hands, you start noticing all the subtle differences.

 

Holy cow ndgal this example is absolutely stunning.

 

I agree. That's why it sold in about 2 minutes...

 

I agree with this. Original lume can definitely expand and be found past the edges of the white hour markers.
It's not as attractive but it can be original.
